Dear Jan Peter, Many thanks for your prompt supplying of copious and most helpful information, filling many long-standing gaps in our knowledge about the immigrant forbears of my wife. Now I hope to find the name of the ship on which they sailed, and where they landed. I am quite certain they landed at Quebec. Tusen takk, Leonard |

I hope it helped you out a little bit...
Adolf's family did really move a lot! I guess it would be related to the occupation of Albert Nilsen Greni, that he was a mason, granitemason.
Based on where the children was born and christened:
1885 Nordre Land, Oppland 1886 Nordre Land, Oppland 1893 Norderhov, Buskerud 1894 Modum, Buskerud 1896 Nitedal, Akershus 1898 Nitedal, Akershus 1900 Nitedal, Akershus 1904 Borre, Vestfold
The note from the 1900 census says he (Albert) had withdrew (?) his membership in the State church, but without entering any other community.

I wonder whether I might impose on P. Hopkins a bit more. Would like the baptism record of Gudrun Emilie, dtr of Adolph and Anna Marie Greni, born on 28 April 1911 at Brandbu, such as was provided for Borghild and Inigvald.
